What is it about?
An entire month of a high school teacher's live-lecture Algebra content was pre-recorded and delivered daily and in a self-paced manner on iPads to a variable group class and then compared to her other class of students using pretest/posttest methodology.

Why is it important?
The research indicates that by creating his/her own multimedia content through capturing the teacher's live-lecture instruction, a high school Algebra teacher was able to increase student cognition and understanding by an entire letter grade over the the teacher's live-lecture delivery of the same content.
Perspectives
The results of the experiment shows that a traditional high school teacher can eliminate his/her live lecture instruction and maintain the student/teacher relationship in an online and multimedia format.
